Employee's egos, as well as many other factors, such as their intellectual and education levels, their cultural and perspective context, are all important when you assess organisational cultural and plan any change initiatives.
Employees will not necessary behave in the organisation's best interest, or drive the aspects that are key aspects of their positions, but would most often get distracted by their what is important for their ego, needs and interests.
It is therefore important that there are structures and procedures in place to ensure that employees remained focus on what is important for the organisation.
These are, of course, competent leadership on the dynamic side and structurally an effective Performance Management system, incentive schemes and Policy and Procedures.
We all know that at the end of the day - it's people in the organization who make an organizational culture and shape it's behaviour. If those people were to bring in their egos into their management style and decision making at the company - it would definitely impact the culture negatively and lead to a toxic work environment!
